Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes forkhead box protein J1 (gene FOXJ1) in human and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 45.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 55 kDa.
FOXJ1 is a forkhead transcription factor that acts as the master regulator of motile cilia formation. It switches on genes needed to build and operate motile cilia in cells such as airway multiciliated cells and ependymal cells. FOXJ1 is a standard marker of ciliated cells and is studied in ciliopathies and airway biology.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Rat) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Rat) |
| Immunocytochemistry / Immunofluorescence | 5 µg/mL (Human) |

| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human SW579 cells, human SK-OV-3 cells, rat PC-12 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): rat ovary tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Samples with confirmed staining (ICC/IF): Caco-2 cells.
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): HepG2 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human FOXJ1 fragment (Asp27–Ala405), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and rat. UniProt places forkhead box protein J1 in the nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Testis, oviduct, lung and brain cortex. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
